I got my hood back today after working on it some more, still needs a little more love and then needs to be painted.

Wow
Looks good seth. I can't wait to see it on the car.

I launched my site. It's still in the devlopmental stages but I like it so far.
What do you guys think of the color scheme and layout. Any input is appreciatied. Now I just need content. Maybe some stories on cool crazy car projects.
Hmm I will have to start lookin for people doing something like that.

So Zai and I were discussing it.

Does anyone know where to find flood damaged vehicles? Specifically a FD Rx-7?

Headlights are looking good Seth, though I can't say that I'm a fan of the black cover things. Just my taste.

I was just looking for it, I guess I'm the one that needs saving.

Seth W · 02-01-2006, 10:11 PM

hey zai I'm wondering if you arent too busy on saturday with work can I come in and do my lights after I get off of work. If so I should be over around 3:30 or so. I forgot your cell phone number so I'll just call you on the shop phone. I should have my supercharger as well tomorrow but I'll have to hold off until I get a new clutch. as is the thing likes to slip in 3rd when I floor it.

mr2greasemonkey · 02-02-2006, 12:55 AM

oh yeah, got the SC eh? haha, right on! dang, we gots a grudge match brewing, Seth. Supposedly going to do the trans. on Seth V. honda this weekend. And i have an engine to start pulling out tomorrow, so we'll see if we can squeeze you in.

MR2Bliss · 02-02-2006, 01:42 AM

Seth W · 02-02-2006, 11:05 PM

well my baby showed up today, I dont think I can run it until I get a clutch but non the less it should be fun I got both the stock pully as well as the 7psi pulley.

Go Ducks · 02-03-2006, 12:42 AM

Oh, come on Zai. I'm reading my book and I have a question.

How come my personal encyclopedia didn't show up in the chat room today?

Bah.

Seth W · 02-03-2006, 07:13 PM

well we went down to pineapple racing the other day and man those guy are just as cool and knowlegeable as our shop group is. Jason is dead set on getting a 3rg gen now so if you guys know of any with a blown motor let me know.

They also had a really slick super 7 their with a 2nd gen rotory in it, they said they had the cad drawings and specs to build one from scratch so maybe once all my MR2 stuff is done I'll do one of those. supposibily it's 1300 or 1400lbs running and about 200ish HP, I figure it's probily the closest thing I can get to a elise any time soon and it beats the 50k for one.

anyways as mentioned I'd like to work on my lights tomorrow if you arent busy zai. I figure that way I can get them up and running and drive it home that day.

Go Ducks · 02-03-2006, 10:43 PM

Seth, did you see what I posted up?

Depending on what your bro wants, there is a sweet one in Conn. It has the body kit molded on it, and comes with all the parts, just not installed. It will just need to be put back together and painted.

I was gonna get it, but I didn't really like the kit personally. Maybe he will. The guy said he would sell for 5500 then it'd be like 1,000 to ship it or so.

Think his name over there is like scooterrx7 or something.

mr2greasemonkey · 02-03-2006, 11:07 PM

hey guys, busy day tomorrow. Lots to do, heck lots to do tonight. sorry bout last night , chris let me have the night off.

Seth W · 02-04-2006, 08:18 PM

hey I guess you called but now your lines busy now, it's a little too late for me today I can probibly just wire up my lights at the other shop during my time off but I figure I'll swing on by as well on tuesday or wendsday.

I agree it's a little intense. I have some ideas to soften it up a bit. There's still a lot to be done but I am learning a lot as I go.
Let me know if you guys know any one that needs web work done. We are looking for more projects. Web design, maintenence, graphic design, ect.
Zai I could probably put a little time into your site if you have any ideas for changes or improvements.
It looks like it's still going to be a while before I get back to PDX

It sucks, I miss all my projects. Oh well, hopefully when I get back I will have more money to play with.

So Zai how's progress with the 91? Is it going to be up and running by the time good weather hits?

Hmm does any one have a place I could stay for a while if I decided to come out and play cars? I don't want to miss out on helping Zai design and build his body kit.

mr2greasemonkey · 02-06-2006, 10:10 PM

gotta say , other than being totally ricer, chris' flat black corolla looks alright. think i should get the digi cam and start taking pictures of projects again.

Seth W · 02-06-2006, 10:59 PM

did he paint his calipers or something? I wouldent think of that as a ricer car at all. I'm just glad he doesnt refur to it as his 8-6
